Going Back The Decades Poem by Francis Duggan

Literary outsiders of the twenty first century the writers of rhyme
By literary experts are dismissed as of another time
Below criticism those who feel they know better say
It does seem that rhyme has known of a better day
There used to be a famous rhymer in every town
Who enjoyed the recognition of local renown
But nowadays this does seem of the distant past
So few things in life ever does seem to last
And few things as is said ever does stay the same
Some of the ignored years ago would have known of fame
A literary in thing many decades ago
That rhyme may have a rebirth well may be so
They used to be famous the writers of rhyme
Going back the decades to another time.
